No representative of LOSC, player, coach or even president, appeared at the microphone of the DAZN teams this Saturday, during the reception of Toulouse FC.
More than just a tacit rule, it is an obligation, at half-time and at the end of each match in Ligue 1, a representative of the two clubs facing each other must appear at the microphone of the official championship broadcaster to give his impressions. This Saturday, when Clément Turpin whistled for the break, no member of the Lille locker room deigned to speak unlike Mark McKenzie, who also spoke of Toulouse FC’s first successful period in hostile territory. At the final whistle, the scene repeated itself, forcing DAZN journalists to debrief the meeting without any actor representing LOSC. For what reason?
During the game, The Voice of the North approached DAZN to find out the why and how and identify a potential malfunction. More than that, it is a fight that the Mastiffs are waging. Before kick-off, the Lille management informed the official broadcaster of the French championship that their men would not respond to the usual media obligations to show their dissatisfaction with the programming of the Derby du Nord, which will pit LOSC against RC Lens on Saturday October 26 at 9 p.m.
This follows the rant of Bruno Genesio, who spoke vehemently on this subject at a press conference. This local opposition, a real shock for the territory, will have to be played three days after a trip to Madrid, where the Mastiffs will face Reinildo’s Atlético in the Champions League. Not feeling listened to by French football authorities, LOSC reacted in its own way behind the scenes and DAZN paid the price.
